Mounting Instructions:
1.
Determine the desired placement on the wall for the product. Within the desired mounting location, locate the wall studs
2.
using the electronic stud finder and mark stud locations using the pencil. (Note: It is best to mount the bracket to at least (1) stud, using the
illustrative graph shown below for reference. Wood studs are typically located every 16”, on center.)
3.
Determine which wall mount bracket hole or holes on the wall that will be centered on a stud. The hole positions that are centered over studs will
use the Stud Mounting Screws for mounting the bracket.
4.
Insert the included bubble level into the bubble level track, as close to the center of the wall mount bracket as possible.
5.
Place the wall mount bracket at the desired location on wall and confirm that the bracket is level.
6.
With the pencil, mark the mounting screw hole locations on the wall with the pencil.
7.
Remove the wall mount bracket and set aside.
Stud Mounting
1. Install the wall mount bracket onto the wall using the Wood Stud Mounting
Screw at one of the wood stud locations first, using the #2 Phillips screwdriver or
the drill with a #2 Phillips bit. Insert the first Wood Stud Mounting Screw through
the hole in the wall mount bracket and tighten clockwise. Leave the Wood Stud
Mounting Screw slightly loose so that the wall mount bracket can still be rotated
and the wall Mount bracket area on the wall is exposed for installing the dry wall
toggle anchor(s).
Dry Wall Mounting
1. Use the #2 Phillips screwdriver to install the toggle anchor(s).
IMPORTANT NOTE:
DO NOT USE THE DRILL TO INSTALL THE TOGGLE
ANCHORS.
Also do not force or “pound” the anchor into the wall. The toggle
anchor is designed to cleanly cut and bore itself into the wall somewhat like
a drill bit.
2.
Slowly turn the anchor clockwise while applying even pressure until the flange just touches the wall. If the anchor position is close to
a stud (1/2” or less), keep turning clockwise until one of the arrows on the flange is pointing to the 12 o’clock position.
3.
Insert the toggle screw into the toggle anchor turning clockwise. At this point, you will feel a slight resistance. This is the point where
the toggle anchor screw is engaging the pivoting portion of the anchor. Continue turning the screw clockwise until the screw head
touches the flange. Tighten the toggle anchor screw until it becomes difficult to turn. At this point the internal pivot will have engaged
the backside of the dry wall. Remove the toggle anchor screw, turning counter-clockwise.
4.
Align the wall mount bracket on the wall over the toggle anchor(s), and re-insert toggle anchor screw(s) with the #2 Phillips
screwdriver until tight.
